   I am waiting for that research paper titled "What came first for Apple - the money or the user experience?". I can imagine Apple's thinking here - if we can squeeze every 3rd party service to adopt our 30% cut, then (1) we'll add more to ou

   So bloody what if it is linkbait? The issue at hand deserves attention and debate.

   I don't think people characterizing this as "too far" are ignorant of that fact that Apple is within its rights to enforce whatever they want to. I think the thread is more about "is Apple being a dick here?"... Unfortunately, Google is pro

   I hope you are consistently this much anal about the "linkbaitiness" of every HN article - or else I'll just have to regard you as an Apple employee or an Apple apologist.

   I thought Apple was all about giving consumers the best UX and that revenue would automatically follow... how does a move like this help UX? How come Apple's reviewers are so freaking vigilant about in-app purchases while letting a fart app

   There are concrete studies (search Acquisti) that shown Facebook users have a big disconnect between what they want as privacy and what they do. And that disconnect has , in more than one top journal papers, been attributed to a lack of tot

   Actually yes I do trust them to the same extent. But that's a choice I have made based on my perceived trust level. I am even OK with advertisers harvesting my photos (not sure if that is possible yet). My main desired privacy control is wh

   That's a pretty damn presumptuous thing to say... have you seen any studies or conducted one yourself where people admitted to leaning towards user-experience benefits about online photo sharing at the expense of privacy? I agree with your

   I trust Instagram to not engage in monkey business with my data. Having said that, this is flirting with the path-address-book kind of privacy-related scrutiny. There has to be a way of telling the user at WHAT POINT the data has started up

    Can we expect any way to tether a Wifi-only iPad or iPod touch to this service in future?

    <fantasy> Google will have a mutiny where someone will kick out Larry and spin off Android, Google+, Youtube and Chrome OS and shift the focus back to basic Web search </fantasy>

    This is the only way I could share the screenshots - sorry if they take a little long to load. Else ping me on Twitter with the same handle and I can attach using yfrog Search results with your extension ENABLED and "Show Personal Results"

    Blake why are you guys completely kicking out the legitimate G+ profile links from the search results using the bookmarklet? I thought you were against search result manipulations. I search for people like Guy Kawasaki or Trey Ratcliff who

    The profile URLs are: Trey Ratcliff: https://plus.google.com/105237212888595777019/posts Guy Kawasaki: https://plus.google.com/112374836634096795698/posts Neither of them show up after I install your chrome extension because the "Show P

    Jesus dude, I searched for two guys who essentially live in Google Plus - Trey Ratcliff and Guy Kawasaki.. and your extension returns everything but their G+ profile pages on the first page of the search result?? I know it is hip to be anti

    If you wanna stick to that analogy, what would be the equivalent of a "live concert" in the app world?

    I thought those "lite" versions are essentially the "trial period" apps. Refund window is problematic as Google witnessed (and thus stopped it); but then again, if your app cannot provide me long term value then may be you deserve a refund.
